Product Information

Sunflower Seed Oil, Capsule Shell (Modified Starch, Glycerol, Gelling Agent: Carrageenan, Colour: Iron Oxide), Sunflower Lecithin, Glyceryl Monostearate. We insist on natural CoQ10 as this is the form used in most studies and we present it dissolved in vegetable oil to aid absorption. These gelatin-free capsules are made in the UK to pharmaceutical GMP standards. The 200mg strength is increasingly recommended by practitioners. There is currently not enough evidence to support using CoQ10 to either prevent or treat cancer or Parkinson’s disease. However, it might help treat certain heart conditions and prevent migraines. People can obtain CoQ10 by eating certain meats and grain proteins, but the quantity present in these foods is too small to increase CoQ10 levels in the body significantly. Whilst CoQ10 can be made in the body, production declines as we age. It has also been shown that cholesterol lowering drugs, called statins, reduce CoQ10 levels in the body, so people taking statins are increasingly recommended to take a CoQ10 supplement.

Taking statins may reduce the amount of CoQ10 in a person’s blood. Studies have shown a significant reduction in plasma CoQ10 concentrations following treatment with statins.

It is essential to speak with a healthcare professional before taking any new dietary supplements, including CoQ10. Additionally, CoQ10 may reduce the effectiveness of blood-thinning drugs, such as warfarin, and this may increase the risk of blood clots. CoQ10 supplements are available to take either by intravenous (IV) injection or as capsules or tablets.Mortensen, S. A., Rosenfeldt, F., Kumar, A., Dolliner, P., Filipiak, K. J., Pella, D., ...

For example, the body’s cells need this compound to produce the energy that allows them to function. Some research suggests that CoQ10 might help ease muscle weakness that is due to taking cholesterol-lowering medications, known as statins.

Research on the effectiveness of CoQ10 for heart problems has provided mixed results. However, one study reported that CoQ10 was an important factor in the survival of older adults with chronic heart failure.CoQ10 is an antioxidant that the body produces naturally and stores in components of the cell called mitochondria. It has associations with energy, protecting cells, and providing heart benefits. Studies have used daily doses of CoQ10 ranging from 50 milligrams (mg) to 1,200 mg in adults. A typical daily dose for someone who has a CoQ10 deficiency is 100–200 mg, while the observed safe level is 1,200 mg per day. The following list of allergens are excluded: Wheat, Barley, Soya, Eggs, Milk (and milk products), Lactose, Nuts, Sulphites, Celery, Fish, Shellfish, Yeast and Gluten containing ingredients. Coenzyme Q10 is an essential chemical that the body produces naturally. A deficiency of this chemical can have adverse effects, and coenzyme Q10 supplements may offer health benefits. CoQ10 might help treat specific heart conditions, such as congestive heart failure and high blood pressure, particularly among older individuals.

People usually tolerate CoQ10 supplementation well, and the supplements produce few, if any, side effects. However, there is limited research to support the health benefits that CoQ10 might offer. Other research showed that CoQ10 might help people recover from some types of heart surgery. Reducing migraines Tepper, S. J. (n.d.). Evidence-based basics on nutraceuticals: Herbs, minerals, vitamins, and supplements in migraine management According to both the American Academy of Neurology and the American Headache Society, CoQ10 may be effective in preventing migraines, although the research to support this is still limited. It is possible that CoQ10 has this effect because it keeps the mitochondria in the cells healthy. Easing statin side effects Qu, H., Guo, M., Chai, H., Wang, W.-T., Gao, Z.-Y., & Shi, D.-Z.
